Superconducting technology has wide applications in superconducting generator, superconducting transmission lines and superconducting energy storage systems. Most of the studies undertaken conclude that although the application of superconducting material in power system did indeed lead to improved efficiencies, the capital cost and cooling energy requirement were too large and that it was not economically feasible to implement. But the major result in the following studies is that in the future, a full superconducting urban area distribution level power system could be cost-effective with existing solutions. It also offers lower voltage drop and improved stability.

The studies employ the use of High-Temperature Superconductors (HTS) cables and HTS current limiters. HTS power equipment has reached such a maturity level that its large-scale integrated use will be feasible in upcoming years. Energy savings from efficient power transmission and distribution can align with the decarbonized electric vehicles market. In electricity systems, transmission and distribution (T&D) losses pose a serious problem since they lower system efficiency, raise operating expenses, and have a greater negative influence on the environment. A possible remedy is provided by superconducting technology, which makes it possible for electrical energy to be transmitted almost losslessly. With emphasis on their function in lowering T&D losses, this paper offers a thorough analysis of superconducting materials and their use in power systems. It talks about the use of transformers, fault current limiters, and superconducting cables, highlighting their benefits over traditional systems. A method for incorporating superconducting technology into current grids is also suggested. The study concludes that although superconducting technology has technical and financial obstacles, developments in material science and cryogenic systems make it a viable option for power distribution and transmission in the future.
